Magnesium is generally produced in the form of ingots. Companies who needs Magnesium in their final products, purchases Magnesium in the form of ingots and process in their own production lines. Magnesium ingots are mainly available in two different chemical classes as Pure and Alloy. Magnesium alloy ingots are produced out of pure materials as well as recycled by magnesium scraps. TIGSA products are known in the industry by adding % to the end of their names, expressing the amount of Magnesium. The main products are; Mg is 90%, Mg 80% and Mg 50%.
Our magnesium alloy ingot products have the same bright gray color as pure magnesium ingot. In case of stocking in contact with air, the color may also be in the form of matte gray. Although its density is different, in terms of standardization, ingots are produced similar to pure ingots in weight and shape.
Magnesium alloy ingot that we produce as TIGSA Metal, contains metallic magnesium in the amount of % in its name. Rest is mainly metallic aluminum. Other elements, except from Magnesium and Aluminum, are mainly traces and mentioned in our analysis certificates. Analysis and visuals are also presented to interested companies.
Most important step of production is the Procurement of suitable scrap type for the target alloy. Magnesium scraps, which are separated according to their class and analysis, are prepared for production. Extreme Oxygen tendency of Magnesium makes it different from other metals and quite dangerous.
Serious security&safety measures are taken at every stage and the process is prepared under the supervision of operators and experts who have many years of experience in the field. There must be different process and production area for each scrap type.
Based on magnesium scrap prices, logistics costs, production costs and pure ingot prices, an average price is determined and marketed. Our magnesium alloy ingot products are always more economical than pure magnesium ingots.
As TIGSA Metal, we offer magnesium users different options with our Magnesium alloy ingot products.
